    Do you need a RO filter? Or just the prefilters? The prefilters you can get a Lowes or Home Depot. The RO you can try reverse flushing it to clean it out some.

    Or you can go to the water store and buy the water. Smile
    They may also sell RO filters as well. And a TDS of 2 is not bad at all.

    He knows I have prefilters. He just needs the DI resin.

    TDS of 2 is not ideal, but in a new tank is probably ok. You are better off starting the new tank with the higher TDS water. You can probably lower the TDS a bit with new prefilters too.

    About damn time. Very Happy

    So are you going to write a paper for next year titled

    "How I spent my summer vacation"

    I woke up. I posted on MASVC of how I need to make water. I went back to sleep.

    Next day I woke up. I posted on MASVC of how I need filters to make water. I went back to sleep.

    I said almost full so no it has not been completly water tested yet. I am hoping to finish adding water today then start mixing the salt in. After that mixes its cycle time which should take a couple of days max
